Share Gallery

An Ares BJJ black-belt and prolific competitor who is active in adults' and masters' tournaments alike, Osvaldo “Queixinho” Moizinho recently won double gold at the Mexico Open in the adults' age group. In one of his fights he applied a sneaky choke using the lapel guard, and here he teaches you how to do it.

Queixinho shows the correct position for feeding the opposite hand with the lapel under the knee, creating a trap to asphyxiate his opponent. As soon as the trap is set Queixinho lets his enemy pass so he can lasso his head and choke him through pressure.

Moreover, Queixinho shows an alternative for use against an opponent who feels threatened and refrains from passing.
